Bryston 4BSST2


Hi All,
If I were to bridge these amps, It is going to give me almost 900 watt's per channel. My question is... Is the quality of the sound about equal to the 28BSST2's
Thanks you your input

Generally speaking, most people feel that you take a hit in sound quality when you bridge a stereo amp. There's a few exceptions, like the BEL 1001. The Bryston 4 is a very powerful amp that can drive just about any speaker with no problems. Do you really need all that extra power?

A hit in sound quality? Depends on the amp, really.

You're right. Which is why I said this.

I said that because the OP said this.

""Again, what he needs to find out is if the bridged amps can drive a 4 Ohm and lower load."

Actually, he never asked about that. Regardless, it wouldn't make sense for Bryston to offer the bridge option if the amp couldn't at least handle a 4 ohm load. Most speakers drop down into 4 ohm territory. The company prides themselves on the fact that their amps can power just about any speaker.
